WOMEN IN COLD CHAIN AGRICULTURE AND RENEWABLE ENERGY
OUR CORE VALUES
01
EMPOWERMENT
At WICCARE, empowerment is at the heart of everything we do. We create economic opportunities by providing communities with access to affordable, sustainable energy, construction and agricultural products, boosting productivity and self-reliance. Through training and ongoing support, we equip farmers, businesses, and individuals with the tools and knowledge they need to thrive. Our commitment to empowerment extends further through partnerships with local NGOs and women's groups, fostering community-driven initiatives and entrepreneurship. By supporting local manufacturing and creating jobs, WICCARE drives economic growth and uplifts communities across East Africa.
02
ENERGY
Energy is central to WICCARE’s mission to improve lives and protect our planet through sustainable energy solutions. We specialize in providing renewable, clean, and efficient energy alternatives, including biomass pellets, briquettes, and biomethane. These products are designed to reduce reliance on non-renewable resources and offer cost-effective alternatives to traditional fuels. Through innovation and a focus on local needs, we ensure our energy solutions are accessible, affordable, and impactful. By making energy cleaner and more efficient, WICCARE enhances the quality of life for households and businesses alike.
03
CIRCULARITY
We are committed to transforming waste into value by turning agricultural and municipal waste streams into useful resources such as biochar, organic fertiliser and renewable biofuels. By embracing circular economy principles we reduce the burden on landfill, maximize resource efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions significantly. This commitment not only supports environmental conservation but also helps reduce carbon footprints and create long-term solutions for sustainable development. At WICCARE, circularity is a promise to our planet and future generations.

WICCARE AND THE UN SDGs
Zero Hunger
WICCARE’s soil amendment products – biochar and biochar/compost blends – help to regenerate depleted agricultural soil and catalyse yield improvements. Meanwhile, we help to address food loss in the supply chain by powering renewable cold storage solutions.
Gender Equality
WICCARE contributes directly to gender equality through partnerships with NGOs, financing a range of female and youth economic empowerment projects in the communities where we operate.
Affordable and Clean Energy
Our commitment to energy access is explicit – we sell our renewable energy products at least 25% below fossil fuel equivalents. Our commitment to clean energy is fundamental in our choice of technologies and tools used.
Decent Work and Economic Growth
We create direct and indirect jobs in peri-urban and agricultural communities often beset by high unemployment and a lack of economic opportunity. The ‘energy dividend’ generated by our price pledge drives economic growth.
Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure
WICCARE brings a range of innovative circular economy processes together at our Hubs. We are constantly on the lookout for suitable solutions we can integrate at our Hubs.
Climate Action
WICCARE Hubs actively sequester carbon in the form of Biochar and avoid greenhouse gas emissions in a variety of ways. From renewable cooking and heating, avoiding landfill and preventing food spoilage, each Hub contributes emissions savings of well over 25,000 tCO2e every year to the global effort.
